hello, everyone. i'm don lemon. all that ahead this hour. first, this. defense secretary chuck hagel is getting a firsthand look at how dangerous afghanistan remains 11 years into the war. also a direct message from the taliban. he's making his first visit since being appointed last month. . it began on a deadly note. a suicide bomber detonated a device in kabul. nine people were killed. a half an hour later nine others were killed when another suicide bomber attacked a check point south of kabul. >> we're at war. war didn't stop. and we have a war here. that's just the reality. we're going to continue to work with the afghans and our coalition partners to fight that war and to assure that the afghan people have every ability

and right to develop their own country, their own way in a democracy. >> so taliban claims responsibility for the blast. in the meantime, eyewitnesss say the death toll could have been much worse. they credit a policeman who sacrificed his life by grabbing the bomber to dull the blast as it detonated. back in washington those budget cuts are just beginning to kick in. the president and congressional republicans haven't done much in the way of direct talks. the president often blamed the gop for the failure to reach a deal. >> none of this is necessary. it's happening because a choice that republicans in congress have made. >> the policies that the republicans are offering right now are the exact policies that got us into this mess. >> if congressional republicans refuse to pay america's bills on time, social security checks and veterans benefits will be delayed. >> that was then, but now it

looks like hardball is out and playing nice is in. here's a warm and fuzzy president obama striking a new and different tone toward republicans. >> america is a nation of different believes and points of view. that's part of what makes us strong and frankly makes our democratic debates sometimes messy and a lot of times pretty frustrating. but ultimately what makes us special is when we summon the ability to see past the differences and come together around the belief that what binds us together will be more powerful than what drives us apart. as democrats and republicans, we may disagree on the best way to achieve our goals, but i'm confident we can agree on what those goals should be. >> nancy pelosi says that the president's new approach is simple. he wants to get things done. disappointed families are changing vacation plans because they cannot tour the white house. starting e today public tours are on hold. the move will help the secret

deal. >> no, i just don't like it one bit. they need to get together and i'm praying that they will be in unity down here in washington. both sides. learn how to compromise. >> the administration decided to suspend the tours saying it would save money for the agency in charge of protecting the president. the the secret service said the tours cost the agency $74,000 a week. that pays for 36 officers spending 40 hours a week at $50 an hour patrolling the tour route. many republicans were quick to criticize the move saying this was a case of the white house using the tours to make a political point about the severity of the points. john boehner issued a statement saying that u.s. capitol tours remain open despite the fact the police also face cuts. outside the white house today, 8-year-old aaron cooper said he was sad he wouldn't get his birthday tour. his backup plan was going to a

smithsonian museum. it also faces $40 million fewer dollars in its budgets because of the new cuts. don? >> emily, thank you very much. now to the winter storm that's beating up the boston area and cape cod and coastal connecticut this evening. high tide on plum island, massachusetts, smashed into beach houses and pushed two of them right off their foundations. nobody was hurt. but the homes and more than a dozen others will have to be bulldozed now. here's a problem. people who live on plum island have been fighting beach erosion for years. this is the second major storm to hit them in a month. look at the snow coming down in denver right now. this storm dropped a foot of snow in the colorado mountains and those of you in kansas and nebraska, this storm is heading your way. back to the east coast now, where a one-two winter storm punch is changing the face of

the coast. adam is there for us. >> reporter: good evening to you. the damage done here to plum island in massachusetts is remarkable. take a look right behind me. there was a home standing there earlier today. it fell into the ocean. that is how powerful this storm was. the home was taken down earlier today because there was just so much damage done to it. this isn't even the only home that fell into the ocean. in fact, yesterday dramatic video shows the home falling in yesterday. and many people thought yesterday would be the end of the storm. then we saw high tide again today and that wreaked havoc on a second home. so two homes have fallen in. two homes have been destroyed and the damage is just never ending here on plum island. in fact, this home right here will have to be taken down tomorrow. you can see there's not a whole lot of support. officials are worried that it's just structurally not strong

enough to stand on its own. so tomorrow it's going to have to be taken down. i'm also being told that 13 homes are uninhabitable as a result of this storm. they will have to meet code until homeowners can move back inside. a lot of bad news. a lot of damage. this was a storm that almost nobody saw coming. they did not think it was going to be this bad. but we saw four high tides. we saw a storm that lasted two and a half days. and many are just stunned that the beach is changing right in front of their ey. the damages in the millions. at least $2 million in damages alone. just to the two houses that fell into the ocean. so the cleanup work, the cleanup work is continuing. it's beginning. and people whose homes are standing, they are just thankful that they still have a home to return home to tonight. now the good news is also a lot of the people in this area don't live here all yearlong. these are seasonal properties.

so in terms of injuries, none. remarkable there, but the cleanup work really just continuing. back to you. >> adam harding in massachusetts for us this evening, thank you, adam. venz away la's presidential election could take place in a matter of weeks. the vote will be on april 14th. until then the former vice president will serve as the country's leader. she was sworn in as interim president yesterday. hugo chavez died of cancer on tuesday. nelson mandela is in the hospital again but officials say there's no cause for concern. the 94-year-old mandela is being treated for an existing condition and stressed it is all part of a routine checkup. he was recently treated for a lung infection and gallstone. a thousand people gathered today for an emotional funeral honoring a small town mayoral candidate. he's the first openly-gay

penalties of 21 defendants. there was also anger in cairo but for a different reason. >> reporter: we are probably just moments away from the verdict that could trigger an exploex of anger here. lots of suspense right now as we wait for the verdict that's moments away. the verdict has been delivered and we saw an incredible roller coaster of emotions here. first off, outrage. that's because 21 defendants who had earlier been sentenced to death, the judge in this trial confirmed those death sentences. that triggered howls and screams of grief and anguish and then a remarkable shift in emotions. that's because the remaining defendants, several were acquitted. others received prison

sentences. no death sentences and that sparked a mini celebration among the people watching. several hours have passed since the verdict and now what we're seeing are thousands of people who gathered here at the city's port continuing to protest the verdicts that they didn't like and continuing to protest against president morsi and his government. they have been setting fire to tires here, but things still relatively calm here. you get the sense that a lot of people here just don't know how to react. they like some of the verdicts, they don't like the other verdicts. maybe that's why you see a lot of people just standing around and watching. in the meantime in cairo, more contrasting emotions. remember all the victims of last year a's football riot were fans of a top cairo football club. they wanted guilty verdicts for all the defendants. they were pleased that there were 21 death sentences, but they didn't like the fact that

only two police officials received prison sentences and two dozen defendants were acquitted. their anger turned into violence where some of the football fans set fire to the local police club as well as the offices of the football federation. all of this is taking place against the backdrop of a deepening political crisis putting this country's young revolution in jeopardy. many egyptians are losing hope for a better economy and a better way of life and pressure is mounting on president morsi and his government to do something. >> all right. this is just in to cnn. take a look at these pictures. just getting this information. these pictures are from woodenville, washington, where a small plane has crashed into a house. this is from kiro. they are flying over the scene right now.

why did you feel it was necessary -- i read that you had an incident. someone called someone a racial slur. but why did you feel the need to put in place a polygraph test? >> well, when i came in, i took one myself. and i saw from my examination that if i had any hidden agendas or bad thoughts or anything like that that it would have came out. so not being from that area originally, i felt that it was -- it would help me to select people to be police officers. the town has had enough bad happen to him and i want to give them a professional law enforcement. >> by doing this, are you admitting that there is racism

in this department? >> no, not to my knowledge. there's none now. what happened prior to me, i don't really know. >> has the test prevended anyone from joining the force? has anyone failed it? >> no one that has been given the test has failed it. i have had a few people come in and ask me about employment and once i tell them about the polygraph, i have had a couple people not come back or not show anymore interest. >> what has been the criticism? have you gotten criticism from the officers or anyone in the community? >> i have not. everyone there has been great. the administration has been great. the public has been real supportive of me. and they understand there's a lot of changes that need to be made to do what they need in

terms of law enforcement. >> so this is happening just in coopertown. would you recommend any other department or municipality to do polygraphs on potential officers? >> i would. if it will save the department from hiring one bad person or one bad officer, it will save them a lot in the long run. as a police officer or even a police department, it's real easy to get a bad repetition. once you do that, it's hard to overcome. this right here is one avenue to keep from something like that happening. >> shane sullivan is the new police chief in cooperstown, tennessee, they are installing a polygraph test to make sure his officers are not racist. thank you for joining us.
